		<p>Normally to start an Apple II computer you would insert a floppy into 
			the floppy disk drive and power it on. If you don't have a disk inserted 
			the drive motor will stay on indefinitely.  To enter Applesoft BASIC instead (and stop the disk 
			drive from spinning) you should press Ctrl+Reset. In AppleWin this sequence is 
			<span style="font-style: italic;">analogous</span> to pressing the following keys:</p>
			<ul>
				<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">F2</span> (Power On), and
				<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ctrl+F2</span> or <span style="font-weight: bold;">Ctrl+Break</span> (Ctrl+Reset)
			</ul>
			<br>

		<p>The Apple //e keyboard was very similar to the PC keyboard, and most keys 
			correspond directly between the two keyboards. However, there were a few keys 
			on the Apple //e that are not on the PC; these are described below:</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Reset</span>:<br>
			On the Apple //e, you could usually press Ctrl+Reset to interrupt a running 
			program. With the Apple //e Emulator, you may emulate this key sequence with
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Ctrl+F2</span> or
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Ctrl+Break</span>.
		</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Open Apple:</span><br>
			The Open Apple key was first introduced in the Apple //e, and was later renamed 
			to the Apple key. It was similar to
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Ctrl</span>
			and
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Alt</span>
			on a PC, in that it was used in conjunction with other keys. This key is 
			emulated with the PC's
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Left Alt</span>
			key, which is in the same position as the Open Apple key on the original //e.
		</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Solid Apple:</span><br>
			The Solid Apple key was introduced on the Apple //e and later renamed to the 
			Option key. This key is emulated with the PC's
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Right Alt</span>
			key (or <span style="font-style: italic;">Alt Gr</span> key), which is in the same position as the Solid Apple key on the original //e.
		</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Numeric Keypad:</span><br>
			The numeric keypad, introduced on the Extended Keyboard //e, is emulated 
			through the PC's numeric keypad. To enable this feature, turn on
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Num Lock </span>and make sure the joystick 
			emulation is configured to use something other than the keyboard.
		</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Pause:</span><br>
			Pressing the PC's
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Pause</span>
			key will pause emulation. Press
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Pause</span>
			again to resume emulation.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Caps Lock:</span><br>
			On start-up, AppleWin always begins with the Apple II's Caps Lock on, regardless of the current state of the PC's Caps Lock key (but there is a <a href="CommandLine.html">Command Line</a> switch to start-up with it off).
			<ul>
			<li>Assuming Caps Lock is off, when you press the PC's Caps Lock key the first time, this will enable the PC's Caps Lock. AppleWin will see this but remain in the Caps Lock enabled state.
			<li>Now pressing the PC's Caps Lock key a second time, AppleWin will disable Caps Lock and allow lower-case to be used.
			<li>Subsequent toggling of the PC's Caps Lock key will continue to be tracked and replicated by AppleWin.
			</ul>
			Of course, for lower-case you must be emulating a //e, Enhanced //e or cloned //e (so not a II or II+).<br><br>
			Also in AppleWin's UI, there is a little icon in the bottom right of the window which shows either 'A' or 'a' to reflect the current state of the emulated Apple II's Caps Lock.
			</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Scroll Lock:</span><br>
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Scroll Lock</span>
			key can be configured to toggle normal/full-speed mode, or only enable full-speed when pressed. See <a href="cfg-input.html">Input</a> for configuring how <span style="font-style: italic;">Scroll Lock</span> behaves.
			NOTE:&nbsp;The status of the PC's
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Scroll Lock</span>
			LED is meaningless.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ctrl+0, Ctrl+1, Ctrl+3:</span><br>
			Hotkeys to change emulation speed:
			<ul>
			<li>Ctrl-0 Toggles between custom speed and Full-Speed
			<li>Ctrl-1 Sets 1 MHz
			<li>Ctrl-3 Sets Full-Speed
			</ul>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Shift+Insert:</span><br>
			Paste text from Windows' clipboard. Text gets fed a character at a time to the 
			Apple's keyboard hardware. The 'CR+LF' combination gets converted to CR.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">PrintScrn:</span><br>
			Save Apple screen to bitmap. The file is saved to the last directory you opened a disk image from. The default resolution is 560x384. Use 
			<span style="font-style: italic;">Shift+PrintScrn</span> 
			to save a 280x192 bitmap. The filename
			generated depends if you have a floppy inserted in drive-1 or not. If you do then
			files are named "{DiskFilename}_#.bmp" otherwise they are named "AppleWin_ScreenShot_#.bmp".</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Shift+PrintScrn:</span><br>
		    See above.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ctrl+PrintScrn:</span><br>
		    Copy the text screen (auto detect 40/80 columns) to the clipboard.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Alt+Enter:</span><br>
		    Default: Toggle between windowed and full screen video modes. (NB. Will conflict with emulation and prevent Open Apple + Enter from being readable. Use the <a href="CommandLine.html">Command Line</a> switch to allow Open Apple + Enter to be readable.)</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Alt+Tab:</span><br>
		    Default: Switch between application-level windows. (NB. Will conflict with emulation and prevent Open Apple + Tab from being readable. Use the <a href="CommandLine.html">Command Line</a> switch to allow Open Apple + Tab to be readable.)</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Alt+Esc, Alt+Space and Ctrl+Esc:</span><br>
		    Default: AppleWin hooks these keyboard shortcuts preventing Windows from detecting them. (NB. Use the <a href="CommandLine.html">Command Line</a> switch to allow Windows to detect them.)</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ctrl+Left Mouse Button:</span><br>
			This will show the Windows mouse cursor when emulating an Apple joystick with the PC's mouse or using a Mouse card.<br>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Keys F1-F8:</span><br>
			These PC function keys correspond to buttons on the <a href="toolbar.html">toolbar</a>.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F2 + Ctrl:</span><br>
		    This PC function key combo acts like Ctrl+Reset (instead of power-cycle).</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F3 + Ctrl:</span><br>
		    This PC function key combo displays the context menu for Drive-1 (then use the cursors to select the item).</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F4 + Ctrl:</span><br>
		    This PC function key combo displays the context menu for Drive-2 (then use the cursors to select the item).</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F6 + Ctrl:</span><br>
		    This PC function key combo toggles between 1x and 2x window sizes.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F9:</span><br>
			This PC function key will cycle through AppleWin's display modes:
			monochrome (custom), Color Monitor, B&W TV, Color TV, etc. This shortcut allows you to switch display modes without going 
			through the configuration dialog. <br>NB. Use Shift+F9 to reverse-cycle the display modes.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F9 + Ctrl + Shift:</span><br>
		    This PC function key combo will toggle 50% scanline mode</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F10:</span><br>
			In //e or Enhanced //e emulation mode it will emulate the rocker switch for European video ROM selection. Use the <a href="CommandLine.html">Command Line</a> switch to use an alternate European video ROM file.<br>
            In Pravets 8A emulation mode it servers as Caps Lock.</p>
		<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Keys F11-F12:</span><br>
			These PC function keys correspond to saving/loading a <a href="savestate.html">save-state</a> file.</p>
